Kyler Murray Misses Second Practice With Foot Injury as Cardinals Weigh Week 6 QB Plan

Arizona lists the quarterback day to day with a decision expected close to kickoff in Indianapolis.

Overview

  • Thursday’s absence marked Murray’s second straight missed practice following a foot injury suffered in Week 5, when he briefly exited before returning.
  • Coach Jonathan Gannon said Murray will play only if healthy, and the staff is preparing parallel game plans for Murray and backup Jacoby Brissett.
  • If Murray is unavailable, Brissett is slated to start, with Kedon Slovis likely to be elevated from the practice squad as the No. 2.
  • Reporting cites a medical analyst who believes the injury involves Murray’s right plant foot and could affect his mobility and accuracy if he plays.
  • Arizona has dropped three straight to fall to 2-3 and now visits the 4-1 Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium.
